Bill Jones Mean Trick.

cit was awful hard that winter at
Tidioute when the Triumph Hill ex-
element broke up" said an old oper-
ator 1.-The boys were most starved,
and it did seem as if we were never
going to pull through to dandelion
time. What set us crazy every morn
ing was to see Bill Jones setting out
for the wells with a paper bundle
under his arm and pair of chicken s
legs sticking out of one end. The
idea Of that fellow having chicken to
eat when we were skirmishing for
beans broke us all up. The boys
watched him day after day passing by
with chicken under his arm and u
self-satisfed look ON his face until
they could stand it no longer. They
held an Indignation meeting, and re-
solved to come down like a wolf on
the fold and make Bill divvy up his
chicken. Next day Bill turned up
smiling with the paper bundle under
his arm, the chicken legs sticking out,
and nodded to the boys. The next
minute half a dozen held him fast, but
he made no resistance, and looked on
with quiet smile while the hungry
mob investigated his dinner. What
do you think they found?"
Chicken legs?"

Want To Sleep.

If you are troubled with insomnia
these sultry nights just turn the faucet
of cold water in your bathroom for a
minute or two upon your feet and then
thoroughly dry them. Haul taut your
mosquito bar, let your head lie low,
and, like the pious country blacksmith
in his pew a church, close your eyes
and think of nothing. The cold water
drives the blood to the head and pro-
duces a soporific effect. One of the
big Portuguese onions sliced and
nicely seasoned and eaten with thin
bread, in the form of sandwiches,
would be good. An ordinary United
States onion viii do if the great big
fellows are out of the market. Onions
are full of opium. Let business and
all mental labor 60 out of your head.
Keep the thoughts of maturing notes,
interest upon mortgages, the good
looking chap that was attentive to
your best girl, and all such enemies to
repose on the outside of your mosquito
netting York Times.

Knew All About Peter.

1t was at a Sunday-school exhibition,
and the Superintendent was showing
off the results of his labors. During
the exercises he asked the children
who could tell him anything about
Peter. No one answered. The ques-
ton was repeated several times, till
finally little girl held up her hand.
We'll, my dear, said the Superin-
tendent, that's right. I am glad to
see there IS one little girl who will put
these larger boys and girls to shame. y
The little girl came forward to the
platform and was told to tell the audi
ence what she knew of Peter.
She put her finger III her mouth, and,
looking very smiling, said:
Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater,
Had wife and couldn keep her:
Put her in pumpkin shell.
And there he kept her very well,
Amid the roar that followed she hur-
ried gaily to her seat.-Our Du1:ab an
